The Best in WIlmington, the Best Anywhere!

Amani Affairs planned the most unforgettable wedding weekend for us. We wanted to make sure our day was special for us, and our loved ones. They took care of ALL details and reassured us every step of the way, even when we had last minute emergencies with vendors. They made sure everything was taken care of, and all we had to do was sit back, and enjoy our weekend with our friends, and family. Please do yourself a favor, and hire them! You will not regret it!!

The secret to a flawless wedding day is Jihan!

Amani Affairs was vital in helping us to create a magical day. We loved and appreciated everything Jihan did for us in the entire planning process, and we continue to be grateful at every wedding we go to where we think “Jihan would have taken care of this easily”. Overall, I can’t recommend her enough!

Amani Affairs Review

We had no idea the kind of attention to detail and quality of service we were going to receive when we chose Amani Affairs, but they exceeded every expectation. Jihan took our vision and brought it to life by really getting to know us understanding exactly what we wanted. Wether that be through virtual meetings, quick communication over email or even phone calls, Jihan and her team were always available to provide the help we needed. One of the best things the team was able to do was work with us to create the perfect timeline and actually execute it perfectly on the day of the wedding. The Amani Affairs team really cares about their clients and they deliver for you on the best day of your life!

Best wedding planner ever

I always knew I wanted a wedding planner and when I got engaged 2 months after starting a new job and juggling moving in with my fiance, I knew I needed some professional help! From the moment that I spoke with Jihan on our initial phone call (which she set up to get ~vibes~) I knew she was the one for me!!! I quote "you should hire me because I will reassure your mom that yes, there is enough food!". She is so professional, creative, prompt, and just a joy to work with. She made wedding planning (260+ guests, planned in 8 months - wow!) the best time for me and my fiance!!! We have recommended her to everyone - she knows everyone in Wilmington and they all rave about her too! I am so grateful I got to work with her and that she was able to make my wedding the best night of my life.

Wonderful Wedding Planner

Working with Amani Affairs for our wedding was a dream come true! From day one, they were attentive, organized, and had an amazing eye for detail. Their warm communication style made the entire process stress-free, and on the big day, everything ran smoothly thanks to their expertise. Jihan and the team truly made us feel cared for, and we couldn’t have asked for a better planner. If you want a seamless, beautifully executed wedding, Amani Affairs is the perfect choice!

Jihan Is the Best!

We can't say enough great things about our Jihan and the Amani Affairs team! They nailed every detail (even ones we didn't think of), communicated flawlessly with everyone, and made our day perfect. Our family and wedding party were all impressed. And, she's an organizational queen! The online portals and checklists made everything so much easier to plan (even in under 7 months). We're beyond happy with their work and highly recommend them for a stress-free, fun, and memorable wedding experience!

Amazing from start to finish

Choosing Amani Affairs was one of the best decisions we could have made. Jihan and Tiffany are knowledgeable, professional, and organized, their attention to detail is impeccable, even down to the smallest of details, the things we wouldn’t have thought of were planned out. Communication was easy and personable, they helped us stay on track throughout the planning process. We were asked for our opinions and were given options, they wanted our vision, and they didn’t try to take over or push anything on us. Choosing Amani Affairs is possibly the difference between having a good day, or the best day of your life. It's been almost a month since our wedding, and our guests still tell us how our wedding was one of the most beautiful and organized weddings they have been to. Thank you, Amani Affairs, for giving us the wedding of our dreams!!!

Amani Affairs is organized, hard working, and dedicated to the work they do.

Amani Affairs is amazing to work with! Their dedication, hard work, and organization makes your special day perfect in every way imaginable. They help to make sure all of your wedding dreams come true especially the small details that make your day unique. They are so well connected in the locations that they work in that they can immediately help you find a vendor for anything you want at your wedding from Carolina blue tablecloths to popcorn as a late night snack. Amani Affairs made me feel relaxed and comfortable on my wedding day!

Just wonderful!

I can't recommend Amani Affairs enough. They helped me plan my dream wedding. I was so stressed about it all coming together, but they deftly managed all of my concerns. I didn't pick the top tier package, but chose the 2nd highest and still feel like I received white glove service. They referred great vendors and helped me manage my budget. You can tell they really love what they do.

Amani Affairs made my wedding day AMAZING!

Amani affairs were an absolute delight to work with. Tiffany and Jihan scheduled several meetings with us before our big day and went over every detail. No stone was left unturned! At the rehearsal, there were a few hiccups (not because of Amani Affairs) but Tiffany and Jihan quickly came up with a solution. They made my wedding day smooth and fun. I’m thrilled I went with them and highly recommend!
